9:01 pm
listen to countries. elections to the safety, thrushes la, how the parliament of the countries far east say, 3 or device. ah, this is the news and i'll have to national was me, you nation. hello. hello and welcome to the program. but you had acknowledged last month to jerome strike and have gone astound killed pan civilians including 7 children and not a single terrorist. washington had initially claims this trial was necessary to prevent and talk with cobble airport in the final days before americans, military withdraw. while reports have now much to see, i had issued a warning to the u. s. military. in the immediate run up to the tragedy saying that civilians including children when like a barrier. i am now convinced that as many as 10 civilians,
9:02 pm
including up to 7 children, were tragically killed in that strike. moreover, we now assess that it is unlikely that the vehicle and those who died were associated with ices cake or were a direct rep to us forces. there was a mistake and i offer my sincere apology. and here you can see the aftermath of that strike in a residential area of carnival 3 kilometers from the airport. that was the secondary blast, which is believed to have been caused by a gas tank in the driveway. the us military has so far declined to say whether there will be any disciplinary action. oh oh, oh. busy busy the me
9:03 pm
with more details on the story hazel, have more i gang staff reporting now from campbell get had been evidence to many and many people that something had gone terribly wrong with this strike you to this was weeks ago, weeks ago because people saw the vaccine in the immediate aftermath of the explosion, if they had been a car, bob laden with explosives, that many people speculate that the explosion, the devastation would have been much greater. it was, and we also saw that the pictures of grid 3 images of the kids, 7 of them killed during the strike. now the united states maintained that the intelligence behind loose was solid. they claim that they track this vehicle from a presumed isis compound, isis, k. compound, near capital, all the way to this residential district, just 3 kilometers away from capital international airport. where, of course,
9:04 pm
at the time of frantic evacuation was due on the way very frantic and with people love freight because everybody back then feared that there would be another terror attack. and the united states says that they surveilled this vehicle as it arrived in this residential neighborhood. they allegedly allegedly, according to witnesses, must have seen all the kids around the car as well as the, the owner of the man they believe, to be a nice suspect. carrying containers which turned out to be empty water containers to and from his car and what we had heard and up until now is a lot of mumbling and diversion on behalf of the state department. the pentagon aust grilled by senators and congressmen alike about this as striking about the overwhelming evidence that it had gone again terribly wrong. make no mistake. no
9:05 pm
military on the face of the earth works harder to avoid civilian casualties than united states military. and nobody wants to see innocent life taken as the secretary says, in this statement we, we apologize and we will endeavor to learn from this horrible mistake. and to that end, he has directed a thorough review of the investigation just completed by us central command. what is highly unusual about the submission is that it came so fast because the united states is well known for dragging these things as in, in iraq, in the syria. we have seen incidents of shrikes, allegedly going wrong, but then the united states taking a year perhaps longer even tool to admit to a nash strike cause in collateral damage killing civilians. usually their investigations are a very drags out, and there is at the end of it,
9:06 pm
no disciplinary measures. and despite this incident, being a tremendous blunder from a tactical perspective, as well as from a public relations perspective, the united states says that no disciplinary measures will be taken as of right now . now, what are the reasons that human rights agencies, for example, believe the recent mission came through quickly, is because of the huge, both political and public pressure on the united states to admit to it. it should be noted that the us military was only forced to admit its failure in the strike because of the current global scrutiny on afghanistan. many similar strikes in syria, iraq and somalia have happened out of the spotlights and the u. s. continues to ny responsibility, while devastated families suffer in silence. while they have said that they're sorry, they have also offered compensation to the families of the victims or presumably
9:07 pm
the family. because all the civilians killed and they don't like what parts of one family. but we have also heard from the united states the these stripes will go on, they will try to learn the lessons, to quote them of this terrible tragedy. but they also said, please don't take this as, as, as aside the bud diminish ability to strike it. isis target's guy. this done, america's last driven strike of the guy who came just days after the terrible terror attacked good capital, airports at the north gate, which came the lives of 13 american troops, as well as more than a 100 civilian. but again, this is odd likely to sort of down the flames of the political criticism aimed at the by the ministration and the state department for what many he has a fiasco is a humiliating and key author, k arctic and to american presence. and i've got to start after 20 years of war
9:08 pm
and former pentagon security analysts, michael maloof, believe the deadline mistake calls into question america's modern military tactics . it is a little unusual for them to admit to a mistake. and they used to be bombings all the time in syria and northern iraq. they hardly ever admitted to it. the kind of gun really had no choice but to look into it. so the general takes responsibility and they're going to offer compensation that doesn't bring back the lives of these children and the adults who are killed and it also showed they didn't have good intelligence. and it really throws into question the over the horizon concept that pentagon says it now has and will continue to watch f can a stand for any potential terrorist attacks out of isis or, or al qaeda. it clearly shows that this over the horizon approach is inadequate.
9:09 pm
washington has revealed, it will be reassessing, its relations with pakistan and the coming weeks the us believes is law bonds, interest and i've got a son are in conflict with america is our sister china. our big spoke to the prime minister of pockets done. he says he's disappointed by the whole style sheet of the u. s. and a lack of appreciation for pakistan's role in the afghan war to blame august sun for this debacle and honest on it is the most painful thing for us to listen to focused on is the country that give the greatest number of sacrifices to for the american water and one is august sun was off to join this invasion of one son by the medical becomes part of the collision. one focused on had nothing to do with $911.00. there was no pockets on involved in . it either was in a plan is done, there were no militant thought abundant,
9:10 pm
but this time we had no reason to enter the war. but unfortunately, on military dictator at the time, to get acceptability from the americans who took us into this war. and this war cost bargain on $80000.00. people died in this so this country what we went through the suffering we went through the forget about the people who lost their lives in bon attacks. the last to the economy, the, you know, when you have suicide attacks, islam, what was like a fortress. so the country lost over $150000000000.00. and after all the sacrifice, rather than a word of appreciation. because they appreciate other people, they're saying, you know, what about the of, of ones who help the coalition and who, you know, they'll try to look off for getting them to us. but what about published on a country loses 80000 people will be turned of children of
9:11 pm
a lesser god didn't matter to them and being a mid skip god for their failure to understand i think was the most painful thing. the thing that comes out most most significantly is that the thought of on government must have an inclusive government because of an a son is, is a country of diversity. the, the push to element thought one of basically, of this, the movement is roughly half the population. then the dodge acts who have significant minority and then the backs and the so from the, for the interest of, of one is for the long term stability of football. and it's gone, all of us feel that it must be an inclusive government, which of which would unites of bonus. so really, that's where we stand today. we will discuss with all the,
9:12 pm
the neighbors up of want to spawn and come up with a policy. demonstrators have gathered in washington demanding justice for though the rest, the during the january 6 riots since the storming of the capital building more than $600.00 people have been charged. he contributes a negro house or pulse. now from the sea. we are here in d. c. where the 1st amendment process is actually happening, right, bonded, and it seems like people seem to be gathered here for all types of different reasons. some people are here on behalf of some of the processors that have been arbitrarily arrested who have not been charged, have not been rated, have not even been given the option to be denied bill. other people were here protesting a mag around that they were looking for. that didn't seem like it actually happened . so you can see the entire protest with calm, despite warning from the mainstream media that it would be incredibly violent. all
9:13 pm
right, those that deny history are doomed to repeat it and we may be thing a re run of january fix and just a few weeks breaking news. law enforcement now preparing for the possibility of armed protesters and saturdays far right. rally in support of the january 6 writer . okay, right now security tight at the u. s. capital, the fencing that's back up, the national guard standing by again. it's all because of tomorrow's far right. rally 100 percent for certain that the people were not here for any type of violence. and that there's a good chance that there's some positive relationship that a big could have been created here, which is once again the opposite of what the major media, because we are all, if you listen to the media for what he said to me, you want us to be scared to our whole need to capitalize on the other side of that thing, you would think that a positive people response from the protests will yield a minimal minimal response from the cost. but instead, as more calls, unity in more calls for peace began. you actually begin to see more swat team
9:14 pm
members arrive thousands of anti boxes, march through the streets of central london on saturday for testing against governmental plans to vaccinate children, age 12 to 15. they've demonstration was held as part of the world wide riley for freedom. we will not of chance for children in the u. k. schools expect to start on wednesday. britton's chief medical offices that the move would help reduce the disruption to children's education. and we spoke to some of the 1st half of her told us about that can sense. i think quite a few in government recognize that this isn't the right way. when you look at what we see in the afternoon with the j t b i. they had no children, they do not condone it. whereas curriculum, the childless ideas, as far as you know, has chosen to her, she said and go with the government. they have mentors been, we're going with the science when i go against outside tom here,
9:15 pm
basically for my children, my grandchildren, not too sure. i see. well, i see the great research happening. 16 year old or a 15 year old dr. cannot drink? going to make a decision about something and believe in freedom. when i log into it doesn't take long enough to say i was wrong. it's probably these people complain private that the children are easily misled on that they get these letters in school which telling you must go here and get inspected and they come home and ask us and say, you know, after get the vaccine. but behind us back to split up families and also in the u. k. a who has rooms the children under the age of 16 can take puberty blockers without parental consent. the court of appeals of returned judgment last year by
9:16 pm
the high court on shonda edwards dashed. he has a story trans rights in the u. k. as back in the spotlight again, as doctors are now able to prescribe puberty blockers to under sixteens. again, it can, central london, which runs the u. k, only use gender identity clinic has won the appeal which revised the 2020 ruling. that under 16 lack the capacity to give their own consent. the judgment upholds established legal principles, which respect the ability of our clinicians to engage actively and thoughtfully with our patients in decisions about their care and futures. it's a firm that it is for doctors not judges to decide on the capacity of the 16th to consent to medical treatment. the case was brought by d transitional care, a bow who started taking puberty blockers at 16 prescribed mail home and testosterone, and had surgery to remove her breasts. but now in her mid twenties, she regrets a decision to transition. last year, the high court ruled that teenagers were highly unlikely to be able to give
9:17 pm
informed consent to what described as experimental treatment. nor would they be able to understand and way up the implications following the court's decision. all treatment was then suspended, a new referrals put on hold as well. a view that has now been overturned. it has shown a light into the dark corners of a medical scandal that is carmen children and harmed me. obviously disappointed with the ruin of the court and especially that it didn't grapple with the significant risk of harm the children exposed to by being given powerful experimental drugs. they can access though that the whole 9 blocking treatment is used by specialists to put a pulls on puberty. while young people think about whether it really is something that they want to do. for many young people struggling with their gender identity, who believe the weight for treatment is far too long? this is a life saving victory, but for care about who wants to take an appeal to the supreme court. the decision
9:18 pm
today is a step backwards for common sense and my colleague union o'neill put a show of puberty blockers for debate. the court is essentially hunting decision making power from the parent to the doctor. the doctor can say no, but the parent can't, does not violate the right of parents to bring up their their children as they see fit is for the medical professionals, along with ideally the parents. but ultimately, it looks at whether the child on the facts of the individual case is capable of giving informed consent. and the best person to judge there is the medical practitioner who's fully aware of all the treatment involves. and the pros and cons, it's fine to say that the doctors and conditions and the regulations need to take responsibility or judging, informed consent like children,
9:19 pm
but we have to accept that. so in salary they've failed as an exponential wise of the transition account sensation, media. and so clearly the system has been working for adolescent. so far we have no idea what the long term results will be in terms of the grant from this current. whoa, whoa, to trojan going through the system just because one individual person in this case came about. well, it's one individual, as you know, well, i'm referring to the pal taste, that is the case to choose decided by the court. the peel yesterday, in that particular case, key rebel has regretted her transition on the selected to do transition back. that does not give key rebel who is not as well as i'm aware, medically or legally qualified. the right to bring litigation. the aim of which was to overturn competence and denying access to medical care for
9:20 pm
transgender children, parents on the whole what, what was best for the children? but sometimes you know what children also know what's best for themself. it all depends on the marriage. defamation of rebel is not acceptable the, the issue of a child who thinks they will think that they are in the wrong body where they learning that this is a unique case where children are indoctrinated on lines for the but there are in the wrong body. no child is born in the wrong body. they are taught this is fact in schools that children all boys or girls based on the, in the feelings and not on last biological sex. they then go to the child. so can they go will be a son. does or boy, at the time you stop and yet don't treat her child. so he's fully aware boys and want to go because they treat her healthy body to change it to
9:21 pm
do 2 nights. the biological goals. this is healthy international and are in depth coverage of the elections to the stay. do you my rushes, low house of parliament versus far east has entered the sad and final day of the bud. meaning of the country's political course for the next 5 years will be decided saying, i'll say sauce care taylor and don hawkins, have all the latest on that from our special studio in the heart of moscow. the a warm welcome back to the rooftops cujo over the king. of course the beautiful, pregnant, so recognizable, i'm quite right. we are continuing our coverage of the elections of the state to do that is russia's know what house of parliament voting taking place across 3 days. beginning on friday and ending on sunday,
9:22 pm
a lot of space voters to get through all that time. both to turn out in election so far was 31.5 percent. as of moscow time this saturday, the turn out for online voting is calculated separately. that stands between 70 and 80 percent of those was just a much higher given miss new electronic voting system, which is available across the 7 region. limited to those, all of a load ross and cosmo, something international space station are also able to make that choice. follow government sky vote on line walter, them the voted through one person back on the ground as you can see, plenty of options for those of the product. absolutely, no shocking costs. now, one not shock. he's responsibility brought him a putative who is in a different kind of south isolation. he's also voted on line of the russian president. it's courtney in quarantine after
9:23 pm
a number of cases were recorded among his call adapting to the era of the contact mac. russia extended the voting period to 3 days, all designs you can limit, of course, spread into virus. one topic that has been getting a lot of attention in the run up to the election. indeed. and the last couple of days is the idea of meddling. not coming from russian officials can see rush cotton is next up. looks at how much group claims over let you to, for an interference to the barrel pound. of course, whether indeed there's any truth behind them. what is this, if not foreign interference? not a single vote has yet been counted and brushes election, and yet the european parliament is talking about not recognizing the result and pass the motions saying the block will ignore the outcome. if a deems devote was enough to european standards, of course not all the lawmakers back to move with some incense that their colleagues over the veil threat. we surround russia with native basis,
9:24 pm
and we call them the aggressor. we support opposition groups and we accuse them a foreign interference. the european project is not been on remind and divided by russia, but by the rank hypocrisy that is characterized in this report. it tells me that it is time to embark on a positive dialogue with the russian federation is time to stop listening to the american in europe is our continent, little from europe, as of right to make a choice in flavor of good relations with russia, alaska. moscow was not exactly impressed with the move either, but he guessed that it was stressed that the russian side has concrete evidence of violations of russian law by the u. s. internet platforms in the context of preparing and conducting the duma elections. it was stated that interference in the internal affairs of our country was categorically and admissible. we had also passed the relevant information through our embassy in washington to the u. s. department of state. well, it's not the 1st time rush has been crying foul over outside interference in the
9:25 pm
selection. russia has irrefutable pre said us tech giant broke russian law relating to the preparation and holding of the russian state tumor election. interference in our country. internal affairs is entirely unacceptable. first, let's talk about so called smart voting scheme, that russian opposition activist alex, in developing his team, came up with to try to take away votes from united russia. a long standing ruling party that supports the kremlin. smart voting suggests you mark your ballot for a rival candidate who's most liked to be the candidate of the united russia in particular, constituency. russian authorities don't say that the tactic is something bad, per se, but they claim there is a link between smart voting and the valid is anti corruption fund, which was labeled and extremist organisation for inciting unauthorized demonstrations and defines of russia's cobra roles. but that's just a part of it. according to russia's foreign ministry, certain smartphone apps facilitating smart voting were designed by employees of
9:26 pm
a firm run by people who have close ties with the pentagon, in the eyes of russian diplomats. this is a clear case of foreign interference in the countries election. plenty of materials have already been distributed through the communications watchdog and law enforcement agencies. ip addresses have been identified. it has been established that service and technical support for the smart voting up, mainly come from the u. s. russian officials have shown no intention of letting this one slide and brought the issue during a meeting with the u. s. tech joins with the us ambassador in moscow as well as handing over each row of documents regarding the large interference to the state department. the main message is, keep out of our election. it's related to the refusal of some online platforms to remove prohibited content. specific facts were handed over to the american ambassador. he promised to check this information while saying they don't have any intelligence that someone could be breaking russian law. as a result,
9:27 pm
we've already seen apple and google came into the pressure and take down the valid is dedicated to smart voting. however, in many other cases, america's tech giants are failing to comply with russian laws by not removing illegal content like messages publicly calling on people to take part in an authorized demonstrations. and this is likely to remain the point of tension between moscow, washington and the was big tack as the duma election plays out. meanwhile, moscow's election authorities have reported a 100 a tax on the elections service, partly blaming the west. the news comes as the e u parliament passed a resolution saying it will not recognize a stay duma if russia's election is deemed fraudulent. and earlier we got reaction to this from political analysts. the main difficulty right now is the attacks from abroad on our electoral system. this is a direct intervention. the d dos attacks attempts to bring our sites or electronic
9:28 pm
systems down. obviously we're checking for any hacking. so far they've been no hacks, it's no technical failures related to the use of tax. western partners who are committed to democracy are actually trying to use money today to discredit our elections and democratic procedures. in fact, by lowering the confidence the russian people have in the institutions of democracy . what's this makes us very sad because we're ready to develop democracy. we're building and developing modern processes and technologies. this is something that doesn't have to do with the election to know these roacha phobia that you have in the world. now it's deep inside people of people and somebody's minds they the, they want to feel like the so even before starting, they are thing. oh, the elections are rig there is, there is a problem. so i come here as an observer, lot of the observers are coming here so we could testify the process. we could be everything working. so i really, this is the agenda. this is
9:29 pm
a problem of agenda. even if you have the most transparent elections, the vast selection is ever with them the observer, it won't change. and i think in my country, for example, there are no observers. so how can i tell that my election? i'm off the, the new york, your new at least bring people to, to watch your election. you bring people to observe your election in my country that no, no such thing. we should question this kind of agenda, this kind of strategy. there is in the world towards russia. i think obviously the west is always a bit nervous with russia, and when it comes to elections that shows up. the way politicians are, alexis can vary from countries of countries. so let's look at the process in russia . so 150 m. p. 's from $225.00 electro districts will be chosen to the state duma. for a 5 year term half are elected by majority voting based on one m people per constituency . the remaining 225, a made up by passes, that pass 5 percent threshold to get through. let's take
9:30 pm
a look at some of those parties hoping to win the seats, 1st of communist, russia and not to be confused with the better known community parcel of the russian federation. it promotes a marxist lenin if ideology and wants to see a massive re nationalization campaign. the policy gone a little more than 2 percent of the vote at the last election, but has no representatives in the state d. my and another content in this election is the liberal, conservative civic platform. it was founded by 1000000000 and the higher pro hurled before an internal bus stop. so him quit. the party says it's support small and medium sized businesses and wants to say stronger domestic production instead of in pools. civic platform has one season be current, parliament and one almost one percent of the vote in 2016 europe today join us the more new.
